Robotic Retroauricular Thyroidectomy
Although RRT is generally recommended for thyroid lobectomies, both Byeon et al. and Kim et al. successfully performed total thyroidectomies, with or without neck dissection, using this technique[10,11]. They considered advanced lymph node metastases with extracapsular spread, and advanced thyroid cancer that invaded the surrounding tissues, as contraindications for the use of RRT. They did not...
متن کاملNew Maneuver in Robotic Single-Port Cholecystectomy.
The need to integrate aspects of functional, psychosocial and cosmetic impairment into medical care is increasingly accepted among the physicians and the patients. For these reasons, single-port robotic surgery emerges as the most advanced approach using the technology. In this study, authors used a new robotic dissector with monopolar electrocautery feature in order to determine the device's s...
متن کاملRobotic Single-Port Hernia Surgery
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Since the introduction of single-incision laparoscopic surgery in 2009, an increasing number of surgical procedures including hernia repair are being performed using this technique. However, its large-scale adoption awaits results of prospective randomized controlled studies confirming its potential benefits. Parallel with single-port surgery development, the issue of ...
متن کاملModified robotic-assisted thyroidectomy: an initial experience with the retroauricular approach.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS New approaches for robotic-assisted thyroidectomy, including the retroauricular approach, were recently described. We have modified the established surgical approach for retroauricular robotic thyroidectomy. Herein, we report our initial experience to identify challenges and limitations of this new surgical approach. STUDY DESIGN Prospective case series. METHODS This s...
متن کاملSingle-port thymectomy using a subxiphoid approach-surgical technique.
Single-port thymectomy (SPT) with a subxiphoid approach is indicated for anterior mediastinal tumors and myasthenia gravis when preoperative diagnostic imaging reveals no tumor infiltration into the surrounding tissues, such as the brachiocephalic vein and pericardium. The present case is a 42-year-old female patient who had an incidental finding of an anterior mediastinal cystic mass during fo...
